I’m a patient girl. Everyone says I’m polite, kind, a little timid, and patient. I can out-wait anything. But I’m not too full of myself to admit this lack of spring weather has my furs bristling. How much longer before I see sunshine? How much longer before warmth returns?

My Dad says Spring is here already and some times, it takes longer to arrive at our house than elsewhere. Well, maybe so. I’ve been looking out my window every.single.day. for weeks now and I’m not seeing it. If it doesn’t get here soon, I just might have to get downright cranky, and no one wants to see me cranky.

Oh! You do? Okay… here’s me cranky. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

See? I can get real cranky when I want to be. Just be glad I’m directing my crankiness at our slow-as-snails Spring, and not at you.

To make sure her point is made – Spring, we’re looking at you, here’s a 55-piece online jigsaw puzzle of Ruby’s cranky face. Mom’s best time was 10 minutes and 2 seconds. Have fun!

We’re switching Quint’s go-to canned food incentive from Parmesan cheese to Nutritional yeast (used to be called Brewer’s yeast) because why give anyone all that salt that’s in Parmesan cheese when Nutritional yeast has the same great cheesy smell and no salt? Thanks again, Eastside Cats for looking out for Quint!

Finally, we plan on being slackers this weekend (meaning we’re doing loads of yard work and probably more painting) so we’re taking Monday off and will be back on Wednesday. Have a wonderful weekend!

  1. Ruby, you’re so adorable when you are being patient – and when when you are being cranky too.

  2. Brian says:

    You are such a cutie sweet Ruby!

  3. 3:54! Such a terrific photo of Ruby getting mad at Spring! Ruby, that’s the same look that I had on my face when I woke up to snow this morning. I’ll let The Hubby know that you’ve found nutritional yeast; we buy bulk packages at the local health food store, for like $4!

  4. Rene S says:

    You’re not being cranky. You’re just expressing your opinion!

  5. Madi and Mom says:

    Ruby darlin’ good things come to those who wait…..keep looking
    Hugs madi your bfff

  6. Summer says:

    We have spring here – maybe it will finally head north to you!

  7. Ellen Pilch says:

    5 minutes 20 seconds, I am getting a little faster 🙂 It is snowing here.

  8. we are right with ya! It’s FREEZING here!

  9. Ruby … how can Spring say no to that face?!? And if the cuteness doesn’t work … that angry face should! Eek. You know we have a weakness for your pictures and your puzzles 🙂

  10. Edie Chase says:

    I’m glad I’m not Spring. It better get to your house soon, and my house too or I’ll be making that face as well.

  11. Ruby, we’re right there with you. Do you know we actually had snow overnight? What kind of spring weather is that????

  12. I got 4 minutes 45 seconds. I’m not surprised you are feeling cranky with this weird Spring, Ruby. We had good weather yesterday, but it is cold again today.

  13. Spring is certainly taking its time coming this year, isn’t it? But before long we’ll be complaining about how hot it is, so I’ll take it!

  14. Just Ducky says:

    We see lots of sun, then we get snow, plus it is way too cold around here. No way this is spring.

  15. Cathy Keisha says:

    We’re still waiting for Spring. Baseball season is supposed to mean Spring but no one told Ma Nature.

  16. Spring has finally sprung here, and we hope it arrives to you very soon ! Purrs

  17. wow that face is even crankier than Amarula’s!

  18. Oh Ruby…..even your cranky face is adorable. We’re getting rather cranky around here, too. Mom is about all crankied out! Spring just can’t seem to find our state and she keeps sending that white stuff our way. We are beginning to think we won’t get spring or summer!!

    Sweet photo!
    Have a wonderful weekend…

  24. Mark's Mews says:

    We are getting pretty tired of waiting for Spring to arrive at OUR house too! It is probably going to do the usual (just later than typical). Going from 40 ta 80 in a week…

  25. Raven says:

    I hope Spring gets to you soon. It was here, then it left. I hope it will be back again before our HOT summers.
